fill it up with dirt and put plants in it,,it will look real nice...LOL

only kidding,my 1st boat was inflatable with a 5hp.. the hull looks pretty solid,make sure the floor is solid,look for soft spots before you spend to much money..get a power washer and some spray on weslley tire cleaner,you will be amazed how clean the inside will come out..

Well, it's not really a Checkmate boat. It was a boat made by Duo and the model of it is Checkmate. But you're still welcome here!

I like it, cool little boat man, but your top priority on your list of repairs should be finding a trailer first
